2823 - Implementing and Administering Security in a Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Network
| Training Location |
9 Denison St, Newcastle West |
| Duration: |
5 days |
| Price: | $3,000.00 Inc GST |
Overview
This five-day instructor-led course addresses the MCSA and MCSE skills path for IT Pro security practitioners,
specifically addressing the training needs of those preparing for the 70-299 certification exam.
The primary product focus is on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 based infrastructure solutions but will include
some client focused content where appropriate. This learning product is to provide functional skills in planning
and implementing infrastructure security.
This course is part of the Security Portfolio and will act as the primary entry point for IT Professionals at the
implementation level. MOC 2810 will provide an entry point for students to broaden their awareness of security issues.
Students will be encouraged to enhance their security design skills by attending MOC 2830.
The course is for a system administrator or system engineer who has the foundation implementation skills and knowledge
for the deployment of secure Microsoft Windows Server 2003 based solutions. This course is not intended to provide
design skills, but will cover planning skills at a level sufficient to enable decision making for the implementation process.
Prerequisites
Before attending this course, students must have:
- Completed MOC 2810 or equivalent knowledge.
- Experience implementing a Windows 2000 or Windows Server 2003 Active Directory environment.
- Experience with organizational resources such as Web, FTP and Exchange servers, (not expected to
have detailed knowledge) shared resources and network services such as DHCP, DNS and WINS also helpful.
Course Outline
Module 1: Planning and Configuring an Authentication and Authorization Strategy
This module explains how to evaluate the infrastructure of your organization and create
and document an authorization and authentication plan that allows the appropriate level
of access to various security principals. It also describes trust relationships, domain
and forest functional levels, and basic security principles.
- Components of an Authentication Model

In this module, students will learn how to create secure baselines for client computers.
- Planning and Implementing a Secure Client Computer Baseline
- Securing Applications on Client Computers
- Planning and Implementing a Software Restriction Policy
- Implementing Security for Mobile Clients
Module 9: Planning and Implementing Software Updates
In this module, students will learn how to plan and implement update management strategies on
computers.
- Introduction to Software Update Management
- Implementing Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer
- Installing Windows Server Update Services
- Managing a WSUS Infrastructure

This module provides students with the information they need to plan and troubleshoot data
transmission security.
- Secure Data Transmission Methods
- Introducing IPSec
- Planning and Implementing Data Transmission Security Using IPSec
- Troubleshooting IPSec Communications
Module 11: Planning and Implementing Security for Wireless Networks
A wireless network uses technology that enables two or more devices to communicate through
standard network protocols and electromagnetic waves-not network cabling-to carry signals
over part or all of the communication path. This module describes how to plan and implement
security for wireless networks.
- Introduction to Securing Wireless Networks
- Implementing 802.1x Authentication
- Planning a Secure WLAN Strategy
- Implementing a Secure WLAN
- Troubleshooting Wireless Networks
Module 12: Planning and Implementing Perimeter Security with Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004
Networks in organizations today are commonly interconnected-various networks within an organization
connect to each other, and corporate networks connect to the Internet. Although this presents new
business opportunities, it can also cause concerns about security, performance, and manageability.
- Introduction to Internet Security and Acceleration Server 2004
- Installing and Managing ISA Server 2004
- Securing a Perimeter Network by Using ISA Server 2004
- Publishing Servers on a Perimeter Network
- Planning a Perimeter Network
- Implementing a Perimeter Network
- Securing an ISA Server 2000 Computer
Module 13: Securing Remote Access
Remote access enables remote access clients to access corporate networks as if they were directly
connected to the corporate network. The remote access clients connect to the network by using dial-up
communication links. The security of a network is compromised if unauthorized remote users gain access
to intranet-based resources. An effective network access security design ensures confirmation of the
identity of the clients attempting to access your organization's network resources and protection of
specific resources from inappropriate access by users.
- Introduction to Remote Access Technologies and Vulnerabilities
- Planning a Remote Access Strategy
